Flying by the seat of our pants...

When your pantry, freezers, and fridge are all full...due to couponing/stockpiling...some weeks it is nice to just pick a dinner idea the day of...no menu plan....and to have all the ingredients for that meal already!
Monday we had flatbread pizzas...super duper easy and super duper cheap...the flatbread was bogo a week earlier and I was afraid it was about to go bad...so saved us from wasting.
Tuesday we had simple dinner of grilled chicken, some of the peas from my grandma's garden, mixed fresh veggies, and rice a roni.
Wednesday we are having italian sausage sandwiches with onions and peppers and baked fries.
Thursday I think we are having chicken taco soup in my slowcooker....because Alivia has a program at school.


In fact...I think I am skipping the big shopping trip until next week since this week's ad runs through Easter. I will have to go get diet cokes, milk and a few veggies/fruits...so maybe $15 for the week....all because I have been stockpiling/couponing! This is a first for sure!
